Tom Stickney – A Top 100 Golf Teacher
Hi I'm Tom Stickney Golf Magazine Top 100 Instructor and today I want to talk to you about hitting your irons too high. A lot of times when people get irons they tend to hang back trying to help the ball the air. When they help the ball here with club passes or hands that turns my 8 iron into a wedge.
When that happens obviously the ball goes super high but it doesn't quite have the distance we want. So to stop the super high shot with the irons what I want to feel because I want to feel everything go together I want to go to handle kind of leaning forward and that delofts the blade a little bit, and when that happens when you get shots a lot more solid. So remember if you are hanging back and flicking your hands the ball is going to have a propensity to go to high.
